If anyone wanted to put an asterisk on a Saints season, this would be the one!
We all knew deep inside that the Saints 0-4 start pretty much doomed their season and run at the Super Bowl.
The loss of our head coach being the over-riding factor; IMO, if Payton was with the Saints, WE would be 11-1, with the loss probably being to Green Bay. Injuries have been a factor, mostly in the last 2 games. I hope having 10 days rest will get the Saints rested and ready to beat the Giants! |

Why win now ? Might as well blow the season to get a high draft pick.

Like being down in a game eats up a lot of your effort to come back, so has the 0-4 start.
Time for change is on the near horizon. Statistically the worst D in NFL history, a decreasingly effect offensive line (that lacks depth), and star players who are only getting older. Window is closing... Depressing... Let's hope there is still time. |

The window is not closing! We've had too much bull**** to put up with this year. Besides teams, who's cities host super bowls, have a jinxed year. This was bound to happen especially without coach Payton. I expect a totally different season in 2013.

I have to disagree.
We've got about 4 more quality years out of Brees, and as bad as this D is, it may take 2 of those to be a (deep) playoff threat again... |

At least the whole Brees consecutive games with a TD record thing is over. Can we get back to playing football please? By "we" I mean Drew. Let's get back to basics. I love Drew but even I can't defend 7 interceptions in 2 games. Sure the line was terrible but Dayum!
I still wanna win out! |

Elway won back-to-back Super Bowls at age 39 and 40. Favre led his team to the #1 seed and made it to the NFC Championship game at age 40. Saying there's only four more years of Brees left in the "window" is really a misinformed statement.
